When you hear the name and the music of I Was A Cub Scout, there`s no need to think about a huge band. No, rather it`s about two very young musicians - Todd Mariott (vocals, guitar and Synthie) and William Bowermann (drums) from long bennington and collingham, england, which delivers some emotional delightful sounds. At first sight their debut lp "I Want You To Know That There Is Always Hope" sounds a little bit fragile and not like these typical ones from england filled with hype and brightness. Anyway, it contains catchy volumes (e.g. the veritable hitsingle "Pink Squares") as well, but rather this is an album, that comes along with somebody. In the car, when the rain falls down on someone, before bedtime after an exhausting day, with friends or during a fine dinner. I recommend you warmly to listen to their dumpish lyrics ( "...don`t be pulled down/do not look back/maybe tings are gonna change/keep your chin up/try to hold your smile/maybe we`ll see better days...").
But some story draws to a faster close you may even think. In february 2008 I Was A Cub Scout have published their debut album yet, there`s no room for hope currently. On their MySpace page Will and Todd announced the band won`t continue any longer. After a uk-tour they split in June 2008. What a crying shame! Absolutely!
